NEW!! Life Is Rich - Old Queenslanders are gorgeous, welcoming homes well suited to our hot climate but they do require decorating with some skill. Especially, how do you handle those soaring ceilings? And, if you love Gauguin but can't afford an original (who could) then we can paint the style for you!
- Most artworks for Works Just For You clients, are for very large walls they can't find the right art for.
- Click the link to find decor tips on how to treat a tall wall from a high ceiling.
- You can suggest a style you like, such as Gauguin and we will paint it for you.
- Works For Your House is far cheaper than buying art from the galleries and much better quality than art from the markets.

Read our process above to discover how easy it is to have art tailored to your home. With no web or email, we communicated with Warren and Phoebe by phone and fax. They trusted us to create Wow! having never seen the art in colour as it was created for them! Now that's faith. Here's what we can do for your big walls:
- Large canvases are measured to fit!
- Canvases are delivered to studio for painting, then to your door when finished.
- Alternately we paint straight onto your walls.

Birds Of Paradise - There is something very calming about a neutral decor...beige, gold, whites, blacks and some plant life perhaps. What do you do though when you would ike more colour in your life? There is a way and here's how without a complete makeover:
- Decide on the base colour of your timbers, i.e Red-Orange, and then make it a brighter and stronger colour for zest in your decor.
- Similarly, if you have metallic Gold finishes, then Yellow-Orange is its brighter version and will work in harmony with your Red-Orange
- Choose 1 Green, i.e a Yellow Green which in this instance, will tone beautifully with the other 2 colours as they all have Yellow in them. (This is an Analogous Colour System)
- Scatter all your colours about your decor so they are balanced and play with lightening, greying them and darkening them to create variety and contrast!

Kangaroo Paw Loo - We all spend a lot of time in our loos, so why not make it a pleasant place to be in!
- Small places suit lots of small canvases, we do the measuring and logistics for you.
- Small rooms suit fewer colours, otherwise they become overpowered.
- Colours like Yellow and Green are receeding colours and won't take up space.
- In a small space, Yellow or Green can be brighter than other colours like Red.

Watercolour over prints - These black and white prints have been hand painted over in watercolour. If you have daggy old prints in your closet that don't suit your decor, we can re-coloured to match your décor.
- This is an affordable way to get new art and hold onto pieces that you may feel emotional about.
- A new frame and matting is sure to bring them to life and add new style.
- It will look like you have spent a fortune on new artwork, but you'll will have saved money and the results will be stunning!
